About this listen
For Vietnam veteran turned wildlife ranger Nick Drake, the war at home proves just as deadly.
Harney County, Oregon, 1968: Nick Drake has a chest full of medals and enough demons to fill a duffel bag. He's been trained to kill but was never retrained to rejoin society. Drake flees to the lonesome high desert in search of redemption and takes a job patrolling wildlife refuges where the only conflicts are keeping out stray cows and ticketing poachers. But then he stumbles across a girl's body ritually placed in a gully.
Her murder is only the beginning, and Drake must face humanity's heart of darkness once again if he's to stop a killer from turning even more gullies into graves.

Sober for fourteen years, Hank took pride in his hard-won sobriety and never hesitated to drop whatever he was doing to talk Cody off a ledge. When Cody takes a closer look at the scene of his friend's death, it becomes apparent that foul play is at hand.

It's 1949. When war veteran Aloysius Archer is released from Carderock Prison, he is sent to Poca City on parole with a short list of dos and a much longer list of don'ts: do report regularly to his parole officer, don't go to bars, certainly don't drink alcohol, do get a job - and don't ever associate with loose women. The small town quickly proves more complicated and dangerous than Archer's years serving in the war or his time in jail.

Bowditch’s investigation leads him to a pair of eccentric scientists who have a vested interest in rattlesnakes and their venom.

Disappointed
There are a lot of people liking this, but, wow. I am pretty filled up with the 'woe is me'. C.J. Box, he isn't. Craig Johnson, he isn't. William Kent Krueger, he isn't.

NICK DRAKE
This Book is about Nick Drake. He is laying low in Harney County Oregon. He's a Wildlife and Fish Ranger. The sheriff gets him to help him solve a murder. There is clues in this book but you don't know till the end who's the bad guy. I really liked this book a lot. I'll continue with this series. Steve Marvel did a good job narrating this book. He's got a good voice. Not so many different voices but I loved his voice and narrating. If my review is any help will you please click on the helpful link below. Thank you

Great story poorly narrated
This first novel has all the elements I look for in a book. 1st, a solid lead character. Nick Drake is struggling to put the war behind him. His PTSD is fairly realistically portrayed. Flashbacks weave through the story and are momentarily confusing at times, but help the reader understand what the character is going through. He’s flawed and relatable. 2nd, a setting you feel immersed in. The high desert setting is well described with lots of small details that make it seem like a real place. 3rd, a good supporting cast. Jemma, Pudge and November are all well rounded and interesting. The mystery is not all that compelling but the story as a whole is still well worth a listen. The only negative for me was the Narrator. At times, several characters sounded so similar that it was hard to figure out who was talking. His reading of the story was fairly flat and he often sounded like a newscaster from the 1960s, so as the action built, his voice and manner stayed the same, taking away from the building suspense.

Wow, what a find!
This soulful, deep, honourable protagonist is worth knowing and spending time with. His respect and openness to other people’s ways of seeing, seeking, and knowing are key to his ability to act quickly to save lives.
This is the most compelling book I’ve read in ages, but I admit it is partly due to the fact that it mirrored so much of my own story as a teenage girl in 1968 frequently hitchhiking through Oregon on my way to and from San Francisco & Seattle. I too had close calls with predators, stayed at an ashram, knew the same movies, books and song lyrics as Nick Drake, and had male friends wounded spiritually by their experience in Vietnam.
The story would be exciting to those readers who do not share the era, though, as it is so gripping and well written. I intend to read more of this author.

Do not pass this book up!
I really enjoyed this first book in the Nick Drake series. The time setting for this series is the late ‘60s Vietnam era. Nick is a damaged veteran, recovering heroin addict. He’s been given a second chance and he can’t blow it. Either become a game warden in some out of the way county in Oregon and give up heroine for a year or go to a psych hospital indefinitely. Nick also suffers from PTSD and has flashbacks.
Shortly after beginning his new job Nick comes across the body of a young woman partially buried. Only days later another body is found. Other young people are going missing but is it foul play or are they draft dodgers? Worse yet, maybe a serial killer is at work in this remote neck of the woods.
Because of the time period there is no technology, there are radios and landlines. Star Trek was a new TV series and the BEATLES had just released their WHITE ALBUM.
There are some very likable and believable characters. The setting is vividly described and the plot is plausible.
Steve Marvel does an excellent job narrating.
This book has my HIGHEST RECOMMENDATION.

A great surprise.
Excellent story, great character development, and a perfect performance. Already bought the next three, right up there with Craig Johnson and William Kent Krueger.

It Grew on Me
At first I was struggling to get through the first half of the book. I found the writing to be kind of corny, the narration bland and the description of Burns, Oregon and the people living there (I live about three hours from there, know ranchers and still visit from time to time) to be lacking, but then the story began to grow on me and I started to get more interested in the characters. I may give the next book in the series a try, depending on the narrator. Although some of the characters were voiced well, the main one, Nick Drake, was hard to endure. I think that was probably the main flaw of the book.

Bad narrator
I liked the story but the narrator was so monotone I had a hard time paying attention. Sometimes I want to listen to a story because the editing is so poor on the written copy, but not this time. I listened to it first then got the written copy. Do yourself a favor and start reading first.
